This class is for artists looking for new ways to sell your work online and create income streams outside of the traditional gallery route. After having many fellow artists ask me for advice on how I've reached success selling my work through so many outlets, I decided to make a class sharing what has worked for me as well as what hasn't.
I made this class to feel like a friend sharing their experiences and discoveries selling art ( a friend who rambles too much... but unlike IRL, here you can increase the speed of the video!) .
You can follow along with my latest work on instagram, or see more of my work on my website.
In the class I discuss selling my work through Anthropologie, Artfully Walls, Saatchi, Minted, some smaller art print on demand companies. I also go into working with several art consult agencies to have images reproduced for hotels, plus info about working with interior designers. I discuss why I still sell on Etsy and Society 6, even though I haven’t been very successful with either.
Selling your work as prints online is fantastic passive income, because you can travel and make your work anywhere… scanning and uploading new work while still earning commissions on your old work.
See the project page for a list of the websites I’ve mentioned in this class, and join the community by sharing new sites you find.
Remember that it takes a while to build up income from your art online. Think of it as long term investing in your art career. Don't sit back and let it run on autopilot! Set goals for yourself, to spend an hour a day, or a few hours a week updating and adding new work to different sites.
And don't forget that the online world (and the real one) is ALWAYS changing! Companies go out of business or change direction, so be on the lookout for new ones. And what sells great for you today could become old news in a few months, so keep creating!
